Straw Hat vs Senses

Straw HatBenjamin MoorevsSensesJotunΔE 16.1Distinct difference

Straw Hat (Benjamin Moore) and Senses (Jotun) come from different manufacturers. Straw Hat reads as beige, while Senses reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 16-point LRV gap — 57 for Straw Hat vs 41 for Senses — means Straw Hat will open up a space more effectively. Where Straw Hat leans red, Senses reads warm — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 16.1 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
